I built his first gaming PC using parts from a guide on PC partpicker. It functions well except for a problem with Windows 11 not displaying WiFi settings anywhere—device manager, control panel network devices, and we've installed drivers but reset the network to factory. I'm unsure what to do next and would appreciate any advice. His parents would probably be happy to have it in their living area. The antenna is already connected. We've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, tried command prompts, and restarted several times. Thanks!

Your computer lacks any built-in Wi-Fi capability.

You anticipated a setup with built-in WiFi.

I should consider going a bit deeper into my explanation. We have already completed this task. Please refer to the original post for details. The antenna is now connected. The drivers were removed and reinstalled. We haven’t attempted command prompts yet, as it seems like a driver-related issue. We located the appropriate drivers and restarted several times. Would you have any small tips to help with this process?

What revision of the board do you own? Did you add the Intel or AMD WiFi driver? https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B66...ver-wlanbt

We tested Intel options, but I’m considering AMD alternatives as well. What are your thoughts?

Check the edges of the motherboard, the update information should be there... for instance, directly from the Gigabyte website for your specific model. If your board is revision 1.3 (or newer), it likely uses AMD wireless... such as AMD RZ600 or Mediatek MT7921K. Otherwise, it probably has an Intel wireless chip. Behind the wireless connectors, verify whether the card is connected to a slot or soldered in place. If it's in a slot, ensure it's fully seated.
